Matt's note: Repainted in Midnight Blue with a 2-part epoxy clear and hand polished, this Hobart-era K5SS has been serviced and is ready to run another 40 years!
This Hobart-produced K5SS Mixer was manufactured on January 27th, 1983, and has received an extensive refresh, to include grease, gaskets, o-ring, dowel pins, groove pin, new phase control board, and new brushes and brush holders. Take comfort in knowing Matt's Mixer Repair offers a one-year warranty and completely stands behind every item sold. And Delivery is available!
Includes: Stand Mixer, bowl, flat beater/whisk/dough hook.
Paint Condition: 8/10. The base was repainted using Rustoleum Midnight Blue Satin and a 2K clear coat, then wet sanded and polished. The paint is not perfect. Admittedly, I'm not a great painter - this was an experiment, and I'll stick to just repairing these cool mixers and leaving the painting to the pros. That's why the price is reasonable.
Mechanical: 9.5/10. This is a solid mixer in great condition internally. Like all 40 year old mixers, it makes noise, but it’s a solid machine. It was thoroughly cleaned and regreased using Phillips 66 Food Machinery Grease.
